An Attempt Made to Wreck the Train

CHICAGO, Oct. 10. Especial. A dis
patch from Memphis says: "When the
Kansas City, Fort Scott & Gulf train,
preceding The Presidential train, ar
rived at q trestle between Bonneville
and Jonesboro, Arkansas, at 5 o'clock
Friday morning, the engineer discoy-
cred the trestle to be on fire. He did
not make the discovery until it was too
late to stop and the train passed over
the bridge. He stopped the train and
jumped down to examine the fire and
found that a section about ten feet
square was in flame, and that the fire
had been started on the under side OF
the timber The engineer and train
men succeeded in putting out the
fire. The flames had not yet eaten
dangerously far into the wood, and the
trest!e was still safe for the passage of
the train. Had the train been ten min
utes later, however, there might have

to chronicle. A careful examination
showed unmistakable evidence of an at
tempt at train Wrecking. The fire was
certainly set to more than one tie at a
time, for it would not have jumped
from one to another without burning
the sides of the timber. The conclusion
is that somebody had applied torch to
at least nine of the timbers There are
many good reasons for believing that
the tiendS who set fire to the tTeStle had
in mind the Presidents special train,
which was TO be the next one over the
bridge after the train which
discovered the fire. Every trainman
whose opinion was asked stated freely
that he had no doubt that such was
the intention. The trestle is thirty
feet long, and the dry stream bed under
it is twelve or fifteen feet below the
track. 1t is at the end of sharp curve,
and in dense forest, far from any
habitation. There seems to have been
some fears on the part of the trainmen
that an attempt would be made to
WRECK THE PRESIDENTS TRAIN,
and one of them said that he had heard
talk to that effect. The rear brakeman
who had not examined the fire, and
who had no apparent reason TO believe
that it had been set on fire, and who
was ordered to go back and flag
a freight train that was following,
refused to go saying, "They will proba-

ward said he knew somebody had tried
to wreck the train and believed they
would shoot him from the brush if they
saw him going to prevent the freight
train from running into the passenger

At Jonesboro the conductor reported
the circumstance to the authorities OF

use the utmost caution In running the

Caldwell came near being no
more last Tuesday. 1t probably
would not have made much differ
ence anyhow, as a gentleman from
Nampa gives us just four months
more of life. But we prefer to die
natural death rather than burn,
as we came near doing. Some lit
tie children at play back of the
Haskell House set fire to an old
shed and soon had more fire than
they bargained for or anybody else
wanted. The alarm was given and
everybody went to fight the fire,
and with the assistance of the wind,
which was in such direction as to
blow the flames off the other build
ings, succeeded in mastering 1t.
Had the wind been in the OPP
posite direction the whole block
would have burned. We ought to
have some protection against fire.
We want fire company. A fire
department does not necessarily
mean lot of expensive and too
often useless machinery. A good
well on every corner; good, lively
bucket brigade; and a few ladders
is worth more than a dozen engines
in a town of this size. Let's organ
ize a fire company. It's about time
to pay poll tax again, anyhow.

MARRIED.

George L. Davis and Miss Mary
Moore Anderson were married in
the Episcopal church, in this city,
on Tuesday evening, May 3, 1887.
The church was crowded with
friends to witness the ceremony,
which was performed by Rev. G.
H. Davis, father of the groom.
The bride was given away by her
father, Ben. M. Anderson, with
George Roadway as best man and
Miss Carrie Davis as brides maid.
All parties were most appropriately
and elegantly attired, and bore the
ordeal with pleasing grace and be-
coming dignity. At its conclusion
the invited guests repaired to the
residence of the brides parents,
where they were received and en-
tertained in manner that will
ever be recalled with pleasure by
those present. Mr.. Davis, the
happy husband, is one of Bosses
most exemplary young men, and
every way able to make his way in
the world. His wife, grown to wo-
manhood in our midst, endeared to
all by her many amiable qualities,
is every way worthy SO good hus-
band and will prove matchless
life companion. Their gifts were
many and valuable. The Demo
crat echoes public sentiment in
wishing them a blissful life

BUNE joins the Democrat in wish

A TRIP TO NAMPA.

ED. TRIBUNE:-I left your little
one-horse town behind me last
Monday, and took the train for a
visit to the future hub and metrop-
oils of Idaho, known as Nampa.
AS the train neared the suburbs of
that thriving city, could not help
but notice the great indications of
life, hustle and activity that, was
everywhere visible. Large vine
yards, loaded down with the
choicest grapes; peach, pear and
apricot trees, surrounded the mag
nifcent residences, and everywhere
were the evidences of wealth and
taste. / got off the cars at the
-Nampa depot, a brief description
of which may interest your readers.
1t is fine granite edifice of the
Queen Ann style of architecture.
Its length is 200 feet and it has
depth of forty feet. The granite
was quarried at Hallowell, Maine,
and was cut and dressed at Boston.
I took the bus to the Russell House,
fine five-story marble front hotel,
situated at the corner of Broadway
and Kelly avenue. Il was warmly
created by the genial host, Col.
Grab H. Rustic, and was escorted
by him to my rooms. Next morn
ing, by especial invitation of the
proprietor, / started out to inspect
the Nampa Rabbit cannery. l
took the electric tramway and on
the way passed the Idaho Central
shops, round house, flour mills,
smelters, etc., all of which help to
sustain the present and future
greatness of Nampa. At9:30a a. M. l
arrived at the cannery and was
shown the workings of the different
used in reducing jack
rabbit from a state of wildness to
commercial value. They are to be
found by thousands feeding on the
rich succulent grasses, and are
driven in by mounted men. After
they are corraled they are driven
up an incline to the hopper and de-
failing machine. The machine
neatly removes and bales the "hops,"
and they are sold to the Boise brew
ers. BY an ingenious devise the
machine cuts off their Gales" and
they are sent free to immigrants
asking information about the great
Nampa country. The rabbits are
then taken to the remover, which
removes the furs. They are soaked
in I've, tanned and made into seal
skin sacques, buffalo and wolf
robes, etc. The flesh is then boiled
and passes to the bone-pickers,
who separate the meat from the
bones, placing the meat on one side
and the bones on the other, the
coarsest of which are made up into
tooth brushes for the county poor.
The meat is automatically packed
INTO cans by delicate machinery
and labeled "Idaho Turkey"
Roast Beef" Canned Trout"
'Deviled Ham," "Nampa jelly"
tic. 1 returned in the evening well |
pleased with my visit, and at some
'uture date will write again.
